To @ZZ tti/"wm t 'may concern: n

Be it known that l, JACOB- h. pews, etA citizen of the United Stzites,residing at ronton, in the county et Lawrence and State of hio, haveinvent-ed certoin nnew and useful improvements in Ges Beating Stoves,oit which Ythe following is` o speci-r fication; u

This invention relates to heating stoves and particularly te thatgeneral cless of such stoves hinting en open front and. an incandescentlicot-oroducing eieinent. u

The primary object of invention is to peoduce :i nesting stove es sbo-veoutlinedy which the dame is 'breiten up and retarded which causes it to'incur e secondary mixture witl'i the :tir and produces perfectcombustion and hotter deine, es Well as e combustion that is free fromcarbon xind the conditions that forni poison ges, such as carboninonoXid, to which ends, one feature oi the invention resides inproviding a nre.

resisting clay bock for open iront ges stoves embodying in itsconstruction e roughened surface so fashioned es to retard the ionie andinduce. it, to cling te the fire back throughout the entire surfacethereof. A further object of the invention is to so con.- struc; theclay fire beek that. it, may be 'quickly heated, and tov so position itwith respect to the stove structure as to deflect the heet downwardlyand outwardly 1n 1ntense rays thet, quickly displace the cold sii. Tothis end, another feature of the :lemenu tion consists in incorporatingo, dre beek, such as proposed as the essence oi toe pres`- entinvention,4 in. a as heating stove suoli es disclosed in U.

Patented filter, it/39 ecteristics as are disclosed in the LettersPatent above referredl to. represents the stove body which is preferablyconstructed of sheet metal and has' an open iront 2, lisposed towardthe' top is o' deiectin'e or radiating plete 3i which is inclineddownfordljy and rearwardly, and from its lower edge, the back plate etextends downwardly, which according' to the present invention embodies:1 .iii-e bock produced from o conventionzil grade of fire-resistingclay: of any desired color, having a Toughened or serrated sui'iaeeformed by the outwardly pio jecting and stoggeredly arranged knobs erfingers some of which, "preferably those closest to the iienie, ere of esolidtriangw larly 'formed body having the apex of one angle disposed*tow-ord the direction of tlie flame, while the uppermost knobs oifingers ercpreferably formed 'l-sliepe with their sharpest pointsdisposed toward the flame und their sides flaring toward the uppermostedge of the beck plete, The back plete terminates adjacent a series oisuitable burners 6. yExtending downwardly from the direction of thelower edge of tlie boeit plete 4 isv the deiiecting plete 7 which terlninateset one end' in the front opening 2 ci' the stove and at itsrearward end in on integral and forwardly disposed portion 8, whichforms e heed or support for the 1ournM ers 6 and is provided with oseries of openings 8 Whose purpose is to permit e current of air to passin ironty of the burners @3. The series of burners 6, which are preteionly of the Bunsen type, ore secured in pen ailel ieletion upon :i plete9, which is in turn secured to tlieside 'Wells of tile stove casing bythe ienge 10 and through its connection 11' with the castings 12. 13lrepresents the fuel delivery conduit which ez;- tends longitudinally ofthe stove immediately beneath theseries of burners 6, and is providedwith e series of openings lei; which ere arranged concentricolly Withopenings in the lower ends of the lournersv e. The 'bottoni oi the stoveeasing diwectlg.7 beneath and et one side of the inirners 6 is providedwith e series of openings which permit s circulation of air from thedoor to the burn ers. The construction of the fire lancio especieliywhen used in connection wi n cioe stove es alcove outlined, enables thethe oir end spread among; tl e sei/eifel peo dit@ jee'tions throughoutthe entire height et' the dame. This produces perfect combustion and anintense flame, resultingq in an eco nomical heat as well as acomtbustion that is free from carbon and the conditions which formpoison carbon nionoxid gas; the perfect combustion derived 'from theconstruction of the fire baclr results in a cleaner7 sanitary stove.@ther advantages are such. as result in the tire back being quickly heated with a minimum of flame and when used in conjunction with a stovesuch as dirclosed, enables the heat to be deliected downwardly in. suolintense rays that the cold air the room is quickly displaced and rapidiycirculated from the lioor over the reflecting plaies and the iire back.it has been found in practice that a fire baclr embodying the 'featuresoi the present invention is a distinct improvement over the asbestos orcopper tire bacirs, as it is more rapid in cleaner in combi'rstion andappearance,
